What about those telemarketers! Or those door to door salesmen! Gotta love em! We had one come to our door today. I had to listen to his 10 minute presentation before I politely said, "There's a no soliciting policy in our neighborhood. The sign is at the entrance." He wasn't too happy with me.

Gerald tells me all the time I mess up the punchline in a joke or leave out "the best part" of a story. Guess I'm not the ultimate story teller. Oh well! <br /><br />What I came up with is "Kids say/do the Darndest Things". I know, pretty lame. It's a stage we're going thru right now though with the twins. Funny story I have to share and I promise I won't mess up the punchline! Owen has been waking up in the middle of the night lately so we've been putting him in bed with us. UGH! One morning I had to get up and start my day before Gerald. Later that morning I heard a "snap" and a "stop that" coming from the bedroom. Gerald told me later that morning he was awakened by Owen snapping Gerald's underwear! Don't you just love the imagination kids have! Oh Mary, this bring back too many memories.

So you haven't yet experienced what I'm about to tell you. <br />Sometimes it's just as exciting to say, "I found a dime on the floor!"<br />My son used to contstantly be on the floor when we were in the store. He ALWAYS found money. Once he found a dollar bill on the floor at Kroger. I used to be so embarassed by him crawling around, but he was always "rewarded" for his efforts, so I couldn't convince him to get up. *sigh*<br />Anyway, keep that in mind when your little one starts looking under the check-out stations at the store. *grin* OK, your little one is only 20 months old, right?

And I agree with BusyMommy about piping in the coffee!<br /><br />I chose two questions:<br /><br />1. If you could eat only one type of cuisine for a year, what would it be? It's really a toss up between Mexican and Asian. But maybe I'll choose Asian, that way I could have a combination of Chinese, Japanese, and Thai. Yum, I'm hungry now.<br /><br />2. What 3 songs do you wish you could erase from your memory? There are probably many more than 3, but these were the first ones that popped into my head as being some of the worst... "Tainted Love", "Don't Worry Be Happy", and "Margaritaville". <br /><br />That was fun! Yeah, thanks for letting us know about plinky. And I agree with BusyMommy about piping in the coffee!

Not only does it take more time for them to finish their transaction, inconveniencing the people in line behind them, but it is also incredibly rude to the cashier.<br />So, maybe it shouldn't be a crime. But people should realize how incredibly rude it is. What activity or behavior should be a crime?
